There's a fire in the sky as I watch the sun rise.
Can't put it to words, only can the birds
as they fly above; they see it every day,
what a beautiful pink haze over a turquoise sea
eclipsed under by mountains of trees.
Horizon starts to shine.
******* buildings, such a crime,
obscuring perfect view,
wonders to me oh so new.
Usually I'd be in a deep daze
watching dreams amaze in a maze.
Today though, I was conscious.

Seem to be chasing what I can't reach
as it starts to get bright with soft dawn light.
Going against the arrows I knew,
what I'm doin' is staying true.
Red cardinal sing to me in a sea of green.
Perspective puts me past what I'd seen.
The troubles I've had just float away,
cuz while I sleep starts a new day.
Looking at my life, its pretty ok,
the troubles I've had just float away.....
